Chapter 97 The teleportation location is still randomly selected...
The underwater situation was quite challenging. The octopus-like creature had eight tentacles, and once it detected them approaching, it would wave its tentacles, stirring up waves and preventing them from getting close.
Besides seaweed, there are also many sea urchins around.
The seaweed will entangle the mechs and obstruct their vision.
Sea urchin spines can cause significant damage to the mech's shell, so everyone tries their best to avoid them to prevent their spines from damaging the mech's shell.
Su Li was confident in what she had made. She cut off a few sea urchin spines and got a sense of their hardness.
Piloting the mech, they circled the octopus beast for a long time, and several students were already eliminated.
He Xiao and the other students from the academy arrived in their mechs.
"Su Li, we'll hold off the octopus beast while you try to get the flag from its head," the squad leader said.
"Okay," Su Li replied.
The class monitor gestured to lead the others closer to the octopus beast, while Su Li circled around to the back of the octopus beast.
Upon seeing someone approach, the octopus immediately waved its tentacles, creating a whirlpool in the sea.
Several students got caught in the scuffle, and He Xiao shouted in Su Li's direction, "Hurry up!"
Su Li immediately drove her mecha over, but the octopus beast was very alert and extended another tentacle, stirring up a vortex once again.
Seeing the vortex in front of her, Su Li did not avoid it, but directly followed the vortex stirred up by the octopus beast and approached it.
Perhaps because someone planted a flag on its head, this octopus-like creature has a very irritable temper.
When it saw the mech trying to approach it, it raised its tentacles and slammed them down.
Su Li deftly dodged it, and then took the opportunity to cut off one of the octopus beast's tentacles with her sword.
The sword was made of very sharp material, yet Su Li didn't exert much effort when she slashed down.
The octopus-like creature, seeing its severed tentacles, grew even more enraged. Ignoring the others, it charged towards Su Li with its remaining tentacles, determined to strangle her.
Su Li nimbly dodged, and as she moved, the octopus beast's tentacles got into a knot, preventing it from creating a vortex. Su Li then circled around to the back of the octopus beast.
She planned to take down the flag first, and then leave. Su Li didn't intend to confront the octopus beast head-on; as long as she got the flag, the door back would open quickly once she reached the surface.
Just as Su Li was manipulating the mecha's arm to grab the flag, someone fired a particle bullet at the octopus beast.
This provoked the octopus beast, whose tentacles were originally knotted, and in its anger, it pulled out two of its tentacles and waved them wildly in the sea.
Su Li looked over and recognized that the particle bullet was fired from Qin Ning's mecha.
As she looked over, Qin Ning also happened to look over. Su Li saw Qin Ning make a provocative gesture towards her, and then she planned to leave with the other students from their academy.
Su Li chuckled. She was close by, and in just a short while, the octopus beast blocked her retreat with its knotted tentacles and swung its other two tentacles at her.
"Su Li!" He Xiao wanted to help, but was eliminated in the next second.
Before being kicked out, He Xiao glanced back and saw that it was Qin Ning's team.
Qin Ning, leading a small team, said, "You guys take care of them, I'll go capture the red flag."
The squad members immediately surrounded them.
The squad leader angrily shouted, "You guys are so despicable and shameless, you actually launched a sneak attack!"
The other party laughed smugly, "You guys are the fools. Isn't Su Li supposed to be good at close combat? Why didn't she use her Tathagata Palm and Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms when facing the octopus beast?"
"Close combat? Hahahaha, fighting a monster in close combat is suicide. Now we'll send you on your way."
The squad leader and the other side started fighting.
Qin Ning circled around to the back of the octopus beast, then maneuvered her mecha to stop a little above the octopus beast's head.
Looking at the red flag, she couldn't help but smile. Just as she was maneuvering her mecha to retrieve it, a rope suddenly flew out from between the octopus beast's tentacles and pierced directly into her mecha.
Qin Ning was shocked and immediately tried to shake off the strange thing. But she found herself being pulled forward by a force, the octopus-like creature's tentacles suddenly snapped off, and a blue and white mecha flew out and collided directly with her.
When she saw the other person clearly, Qin Ning's eyes were filled with disbelief, "Weren't you already out?"
Su Li didn't waste any words with her. She reeled in the rope and kicked Qin Ning's mecha, sending her flying. Then, with a running start, she charged towards Qin Ning's mecha, raising her sword at the same time.
The sword above her head grew bigger and bigger and bigger.
The people outside the arena were already quite agitated. "That sword must be made of retractable metal, right? Stretching it to this extent is already its limit."
As she spoke, Su Li raised her sword and slashed at Qin Ning's mecha, splitting it in two.
Qin Ning looked at Su Li with a horrified expression, but before she could say anything, she was already out of the game.
They won't die, but the mech is definitely ruined.
As for people, they might get hurt.
Su Li wasn't sure if she would be able to participate in the next competition.
People from other schools were stunned by Su Li's move.
"What kind of sword is that? It's amazing!"
"It can even split through mechs."
Su Li sheathed her sword, turned to look at the group, and asked with a smile, "Who just said that close combat is useless?"
"It's him!" Those who heard those words pointed to the people who had just spoken.
Su Li rushed over quickly and punched the mecha of the person in front, denting the outer shell of the mecha.
"I'll give you one more chance. Do you think close combat is effective?"
The opponent was in so much pain that his face was contorted, and he couldn't speak at all, so he was eliminated immediately.
Su Li didn't give the others a chance to speak and quickly dealt with them.
In just a short while, several people have already been eliminated.
Some of those who weren't yet eliminated retreated a bit, silently distancing themselves from Su Li, fearing that a single punch from her would send them out of the game.
She's so fast that even long-range weapons can't aim accurately. The real fear isn't missing her with continuous fire, but rather missing her and getting eliminated by Su Li first.
The octopus-like creature without its tentacles couldn't cause much trouble, but it was rampaging around, and with the flag still on its head, it was nimbly running around everywhere, making it difficult to catch.
"Is Qin Ning, that person, crazy?" the class monitor couldn't help but curse as she followed behind Su Li.
Even if they really wanted to grab the red flag, they had to deal with the octopus beast first. They hadn't expected that madwoman to deliberately provoke it. An enraged beast is uncontrollable; she was willing to eliminate everyone rather than let Su Li get the red flag.
However, Su Li's moves just now showed her classmates her skills, and they all looked at her with admiration.
They still thought that Su Li must have gone easy on them during their training matches at school.
"It's not that exaggerated. The power of a mecha is definitely different from the power of a human."
Su Li doesn't believe she can defeat someone using a mecha without using a mecha, relying solely on her fists.
The group discussed going over to distract the octopus beast from its rest, and then the squad leader went over to take the flag off the octopus beast's head.
Once the battle plan was finalized, everyone immediately began their operation. People from other academies also had their own battle plans, and they were quite resentful that the people from the Federal Military Academy had taken the lead.
We lost a red flag to the Federal Military Academy before, and we absolutely cannot let them get there first this time.
Let's just bring them all together.
Some schools are observing from the sidelines, not rushing to participate.
They can't beat Su Li in a fight. If possible, they can take the opportunity to steal the flag when the exit door opens.
No matter what they think, it won't affect Su Li's battle plan; all they need to do is capture the flag.
Su Li led a few people to block the octopus beast's path, giving the class monitor a chance to pull out the flag.
The octopus-like creature was surrounded by people; without its tentacles, it could only ram its head against the wall.
The squad leader seized the opportunity and immediately rushed over to grab the flag.
People from other colleges also took the opportunity to surround them, hoping to escape quickly in the chaos.
They had all planned it out perfectly, but they never expected that when they got close to the octopus beast, it would spit out a mouthful of ink, and everything would go black instantly, making it impossible to tell which way to go.
"You bastard, that's my mecha's head, don't pull it out."
"Who? Who touched my butt?"
Who stepped on my foot?
In the midst of the chaos, it was impossible to tell who was who.
"Where's the octopus beast? Where did it go?"
The octopus-like creature ran out, but Su Li stopped it.
She threw the rope again, which wrapped around the red flag on the octopus's head and pulled it down.
Then the octopus beast ran away quickly.
"Class monitor, I'm going up first," Su Li called out to the blob of ink.
A group of people fought inside for a while before coming out.
"Okay, be careful," the squad leader replied in a loud voice.
Su Li rushed out of the water as they had originally planned.
"Oh no! She took the red flag! Go after her!" someone shouted as soon as they realized what was happening.
Upon hearing this, Su Li rushed out of the water at top speed, as it would be easier to fight once out of the water.
Several beams of particle light shot out from behind her and burst onto the surface of the sea.
The moment she broke through the water, she quickly rose into the air.
But they were still surrounded by others on the water. These people hadn't gone into the water; they were just waiting to see who came up with the flag so they could snatch it from them.
"If you don't want to be eliminated, then obediently hand over the flag."
"Why waste words with her? Let's just start fighting."
Su Li then took out two more hammers. Just as the people were wondering what was going on, they saw the hammers in Su Li's hands suddenly grow bigger and bigger.
"You big idiot, you're out of the game."
Su Li smashed down with both hammers at the same time, knocking them all out of the game.
They didn't spare anyone else either. With such limited skills, they dared to steal things. Except for their own people, they should all be eliminated.
And those that came out of the sea, they smashed them one by one.
Xiang Bei laughed loudly in the space.
It's like playing whack-a-mole.
Su Li didn't know what "whack-a-mole" meant, so she just gave the mechs a whack whenever they flew up.
It was so satisfying to smash things that I almost lost control and smashed my own people.
"Su Li, get out of the way!" the class monitor suddenly shouted.
Su Li didn't hesitate and immediately left.
A huge wave suddenly rose from the sea surface.
The mechs that were slow to dodge were swallowed up by the octopus beast that rushed out, and then the octopus beast went into the sea and disappeared.
"Do we have to steal the red flag to get out?"
They glanced at Su Li with a forced smile. She was still holding a hammer, striking one mech at a time. Although she hadn't hit their mechs, the sound and the force of the blows filled them with fear.
If I were to actually try to steal it, I'd be a bit of a coward.
"What are you afraid of? Just rob it. It's not like you're really going to die," someone nearby said.
Seeing this, the others from the academy rushed over, saying, "We're here too."
We can't expect Su Li to handle everything; otherwise, what's the point of having them?
A group of people rushed over without saying a word.
"You bunch of bastards, just wait and see how I deal with you today."
"Pah! The red flag belongs to us."
As long as they don't face Su Li, they are quite confident in their ability to fight others.
Su Li didn't know what was going on either. She wasn't taking down enemies one by one like before. The main problem was that the vortexes she had been waiting for hadn't come out yet, which felt a bit strange.
“Go help the class monitor,” Su Li said to the person next to her.
Compared to her, the squad leader, who was holding the red flag and surrounded by people, clearly needed help more.
The class monitor, however, charged straight through the encirclement, shouting, "Su Li, catch me!"
The flag might be snatched away if it's in his hands, but it's different if it's in Su Li's hands. If anyone dares to snatch it, Su Li will knock them out of the game.
That move was so cool, it made me feel really safe.
The students at the Federal Military Academy all had an inexplicable trust in Su Li.
Su Li shoved aside the mech blocking her way, grabbed the flag from the squad leader, turned around, and unleashed a devastating palm strike at the pursuers behind her, slamming them into the sea.
"Look, there's movement on the sea."
When everyone looked over, they could only see bubbles rising to the surface of the sea.
"Is that octopus-like creature going to reappear?"
The eyes of the Su Li mecha suddenly lit up, shooting out two beams of light that reached directly to the seabed.
"The exit is in the sea, let's hurry."
Su Li took the red flag and rushed into the sea first, followed closely by the others.
Once inside the sea, they found it pitch black and couldn't see anything clearly. Fortunately, Su Li's mecha kept emitting light, which helped them find their way.
"A vortex has appeared! We need to get out of here quickly!" The students from the academy shouted as soon as they saw the vortex appear.
"You guys go first, I'll cover the rear," Su Li called out as she stopped beside the whirlpool.
Seaweed and sea urchins gathered around.
She handed the red flag to the first student who came over, and then pushed that student out.
"Su Li, I'm the class monitor, I'll cover the rear."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than Su Li dragged the class monitor into the vortex.
She charged straight at the seaweed and sea urchins, easily cutting through the dense seaweed with her sword.
Only after everyone had entered the vortex did they rush towards the vortex that was about to disappear.
At the last moment before the vortex disappeared, I left the simulated battlefield.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Su Li come out.
He Xiao pounced on her, exclaiming, "Su Li, you're amazing!"
"Su Li, why do your mecha's eyes light up?"
“That’s called ‘Eagle Eyes’,” Su Li said.
"Su Li, Su Li, does your mecha have any other abilities?"
"Yes." Su Li didn't explain too much; she couldn't unleash all her ultimate moves at once.
"Assemble!" Instructor Yue shouted, and everyone immediately assembled.
"Go back and rest, and we'll continue the fight in a couple of days."
The students surrounded Su Li as she left, and after they left, people from other schools began to discuss the weapons Su Li had used in the simulated battlefield.
I want to ask, but I'm too embarrassed to.
Su Li lay in her dormitory, recalling the scenes of the simulated battlefield. She was very excited and even talked with her grandmother for a while.
"Grandma, aren't I amazing?"
"It's alright, I was much better when I was younger."
At this point, it's best not to let your eldest granddaughter become too proud.
"I think there are still some issues with the mecha that need to be addressed, and it can be made even better."
Xiang Bei said a few words of encouragement, but received no response. Then she looked and saw that Su Li had already fallen asleep.
He reached out and helped her cover herself with the blanket.
During their rest days, they also exercised their physique on the field.
Everyone thought Su Li's tricks were cool and wanted to learn them.
"If you're not afraid of hard work, you can learn from me. But once you've signed up, I won't allow you to quit."
"Let's all learn, let's learn!"
After one training session, everyone was lying sprawled on the ground.
He Xiao moved closer to Su Li, whispering mysteriously, "I heard Bian Shize got fired, hahaha, he deserved it, serves him right for deliberately causing you trouble."
Su Li didn't react much. If Bian Shize hadn't been jumping around her the whole time, she would have almost forgotten about him.
"I don't know what Qin Ning was thinking, she actually asked her family to plead for Bian Shize," He Xiao said, shaking his head.
It was also said that Ning Ruoxi had come, and no matter how she tried to persuade Qin Ning, she wouldn't listen. The two even got into a fight. Bian Shize said that he would make Ning Ruoxi kneel down and kowtow to Qin Ning to apologize, or else Ning Ruoxi would be in trouble.
Then he was beaten by the Ning family's bodyguards.
Su Li: "..." I understand now, the treatment she used to receive has now been transferred to Ning Ruoxi.
Given this situation, if Qin Ning also comes to her senses and doesn't want him anymore, won't she be the next person to suffer the same treatment?
Then move on to the next one, and so on, in a continuous cycle.
Su Li quickly banished those terrible thoughts from her mind.
She stood up. "Come on, let's continue."
The students groaned in pain, but they also stood up and continued training.
Seven days later, they moved on to the next simulated battlefield.
The location of the teleportation is still randomly generated.
As soon as you enter, you feel a wave of heat hitting you.
The sand beneath your feet feels scorching hot.
"Hot, hot, hot!" Someone felt the burning heat under their feet and quickly piloted their mech into the air.
"Su Li, over here."
He Xiao and the others, who had come in first, hid in the shadow of a boulder and waved to Su Li.
This time it seems that everyone wasn't scattered too much.
It's so hot here, it feels like it could melt the mechs. Many people can't stand it.
It would be better to hide in the shadow of this rock.
